Press Releases

Ann Arbor, Michigan - Cybernet Systems Corporation, a leading defense, robotics, engineering, cyber security and simulation systems development company, today announced award of US Patent 8,983,561 that discloses driverless vehicle technology and supporting infrastructure to support fully or partially automated warehouse operations, including automated guidance and safety, pallet finding, acquisition, and placement, and overall warehouse system control. Supported by numerous other Computer Vision-based localization and guidance patents, this new capability developed jointly with the US Army, Hyster, and Kalmar provides the means for fully automated and manual assisting controlled operation of forklifts and container handlers in warehouse, forward base, and container yard operations. It covers warehouse operations command and control, safe manned and unmanned logistical vehicle navigation to and from load points, and Pallet engagement, disengagement, and use of visual and range data sets in an engagement task specific manner. Prior driverless vehicle are in the public domain back to at least the mid 1980s is disclosed recognizing the contributions from academia and industry from Autonomous Land Vehicle, Navlab, the DARPA Grand and Urban Challenges, and others.

Ann Arbor, Michigan - Cybernet Systems Corporation, a leading defense, robotics, engineering, cyber security and simulation systems development company, today announced award of an IDIQ with the US Army for Automated Tactical Ammunition Classification Systems (ATACS) and Small Brass Sorters (SBS) that includes task order for eight new machines, upgrades for fielded machines, and systems support. ATACS machines inspect turn-in small caliber rounds from 50 cal down to 4.6mm for as-manufactured quality, corrosion, and round lot/size/type. Reclaimed turn-in rounds are re-lotted for use in training saving millions of dollars per month for the Army bases employing the technology. SBS machines perform Army mandated visual inspection of spend cartridges and cases so that they can be resold or reused. The case is the single most expensive part of small caliber munitions so this inspection supports the dual goals of allowing the Army to safely resell spent cartridges to defray other expenses and assures that cases to be sold a fully spent and safe for reuse.

Ann Arbor, Michigan - Cybernet Systems Corporation, a leading defense, robotics, engineering, cybersecurity and simulation systems development company, today announced award of an Interactive Instructor for Shipboard Technicians development contract from the US Navy, Naval Sea Systems Command. The goal of this project is the creation of an Interactive Instructor that provides an interface for interactive instruction. The Interactive Instructor system takes as its input the expert ship maintenance knowledge in the form that it resides, including and especially natural language. We then will enhance freely available Turing test and utterance technology to generate dynamic, contemporaneous dialogues that allow the technician to present information and ask questions in a manner they would normally present to human shore-based experts, and receive interactive responses that provide the technician resolution of problems based on learned expert solutions.

Ann Arbor, Michigan - Cybernet Systems Corporation, a leading defense, robotics, engineering, cybersecurity and simulation systems development company, today announced award of Just-In-Time-Aircraft Maintenance System development contract from the US Air Force at Robbins Air Force Base. The goal of this development project is to create a just-in-time aircraft maintenance system to provide actionable analysis of systems behavior prior to aircraft-to-be-maintained arrival. The system increases the predictability of actual maintenance by executing root-cause analysis and by generating risk-based assessments of repair options. During this effort, we will refine and build upon Cybernet’s core analysis algorithms designed in the previous contract, apply our core algorithms to aircraft log data, further optimize our algorithms for speed and quality, develop extensions and analysis modules to support High Velocity Maintenance (HVM), and complete the prototype system as the next step towards integration into maintenance operations at Robins AFB.
